I Client-side scripts to interact with the user. I Communicates asynchronously and alters document content. I Used with Node.js in server side scripting, game development, mobile applications, etc. I Has thousands of libraries that can be used to carry out various tasks. JavaScript is NOT Java I Names can be deceiving. I Java is a full-fledged object-oriented programming language. I Java is popular for developing large-scale distributed enterprise applications and web applications. I JavaScript is a browser-based scripting language developed by Netscape and implemented in all major browsers. I JavaScript is executed by the browsers on the client side. JavaScript and other languages JavaScript borrows the elements from a variety of languages. I Object orientation from Java. I Syntax from C. I Semantics from Self and Scheme. Whats a script? I A program written for a special runtime environment. I Interpreted (as opposed to compiled). I Used to automate tasks. I Operates at very high levels of abstraction. Whats JavaScript? I Developed at Netscape to perform client side validation. I Adopted by Microsoft in IE 3.0 (1996). I Standardized in 1996. Current standard is ECMAScript 6 (2016). I Specifications for ECMAScript 2016 are out. I CommonJS used for development outside the browser. JavaScript uses I JavaScript has an insanely large API and library.

  • The Evolution of Lisp
    1 The Evolution of Lisp Guy L. Steele Jr. Richard P. Gabriel Thinking Machines Corporation Lucid, Inc. 245 First Street 707 Laurel Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 Menlo Park, California 94025 Phone: (617) 234-2860 Phone: (415) 329-8400 FAX: (617) 243-4444 FAX: (415) 329-8480 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Lisp is the world’s greatest programming language—or so its proponents think. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch. Overall, the evolution of Lisp has been guided more by institutional rivalry, one-upsmanship, and the glee born of technical cleverness that is characteristic of the “hacker culture” than by sober assessments of technical requirements. Nevertheless this process has eventually produced both an industrial- strength programming language, messy but powerful, and a technically pure dialect, small but powerful, that is suitable for use by programming-language theoreticians. We pick up where McCarthy’s paper in the first HOPL conference left off. We trace the development chronologically from the era of the PDP-6, through the heyday of Interlisp and MacLisp, past the ascension and decline of special purpose Lisp machines, to the present era of standardization activities. We then examine the technical evolution of a few representative language features, including both some notable successes and some notable failures, that illuminate design issues that distinguish Lisp from other programming languages. We also discuss the use of Lisp as a laboratory for designing other programming languages. We conclude with some reflections on the forces that have driven the evolution of Lisp.

  • Proposal to Refocus TC39-TG1 on the Maintenance of the Ecmascript, 3 Edition Specification
    Proposal to Refocus TC39-TG1 On the Maintenance of the ECMAScript, 3rd Edition Specification Submitted by: Yahoo! Inc. Microsoft Corporation Douglas Crockford Pratap Lakshman & Allen Wirfs-Brock Preface We believe that the specification currently under development by TC39-TG1 as ECMAScript 4 is such a radical departure from the current standard that it is essentially a new language. It is as different from ECMAScript 3rd Edition as C++ is from C. Such a drastic change is not appropriate for a revision of a widely used standardized language and cannot be justified in light of the current broad adoption of ECMAScript 3rd Edition for AJAX style web applications. We do not believe that consensus can be reach within TC39-TG1 based upon its current language design work. However, we do believe that an alternative way forward can be found and submit this proposal as a possible path to resolution. Proposal We propose that the work of TC39-TG1 be reconstituted as two (or possibly three) new TC39 work items as follows: Work item 1 – On going maintenance of ECMAScript, 3rd Edition. In light on the broad adoption of ECMAScript, 3rd Edition for web browser based applications it is clear that this language will remain an important part of the world-wide-web infrastructure for the foreseeable future. However, since the publication of the ECMAScript, 3rd Edition specification in 1999 there has been feature drift between implementations and cross-implementation compatibility issues arising from deficiencies and ambiguities in the specification. The purpose of this work item is to create a maintenance revision of the specification (a 4th Edition) that focuses on these goals: Improve implementation conformance by rewriting the specification to improve its rigor and clarity, and by correcting known points of ambiguity or under specification.

  • Gábor Melis to Keynote European Lisp Symposium
    Gábor Melis to Keynote European Lisp Symposium OAKLAND, Calif. — April 14, 2014 —Franz Inc.’s Senior Engineer, Gábor Melis, will be a keynote speaker at the 7th annual European Lisp Symposium (ELS’14) this May in Paris, France. The European Lisp Symposium provides a forum for the discussion and dissemination of all aspects of design, implementationand application of any of the Lisp and Lisp- inspired dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp, AutoLisp, ISLISP, Dylan, Clojure, ACL2, ECMAScript, Racket, SKILL, Hop etc. Sending Beams into the Parallel Cube A pop-scientific look through the Lisp lens at machine learning, parallelism, software, and prize fighting We send probes into the topic hypercube bounded by machine learning, parallelism, software and contests, demonstrate existing and sketch future Lisp infrastructure, pin the future and foreign arrays down. We take a seemingly random walk along the different paths, watch the scenery of pairwise interactions unfold and piece a puzzle together. In the purely speculative thread, we compare models of parallel computation, keeping an eye on their applicability and lisp support. In the the Python and R envy thread, we detail why lisp could be a better vehicle for scientific programming and how high performance computing is eroding lisp’s largely unrealized competitive advantages. Switching to constructive mode, a basic data structure is proposed as a first step. In the machine learning thread, lisp’s unparalleled interactive capabilities meet contests, neural networks cross threads and all get in the way of the presentation.

  • JTC1 and SC22 - Terminology
    JTC1 AD Hoc Terminology, August 2005 1 JTC1 and SC22 - Terminology Background Following my offer to collect together the definitions from SC22 standards, SC22 accepted my offer and appointed me as its terminology representative (I was later also asked to represent UK and BSI) on the JTC1 ad hoc group on terminology. These notes summarise the results of collecting the SC22 definitions, and my impressions of the JTC1 ad hoc group. Roger Scowen August 2005 A collection of definitions from SC22 standards SC22 asked me to prepare a collected terminology for SC22 containing the definitions from standards for which SC22 is responsible, and asked the project editors to send me the definitions in text form. Many, but not all, project editors did so. However there are sufficient for SC22 to judge whether to complete the list or abandon it as an interesting but unprofitable exercise. Adding definitions to the database The project editor of a standard typically sends the definitions from the standard as a Word file, but it may be plain text or in Latex or nroff format. These definitions are transformed into a uniform format by a series of global ‘find & replace’ operations to produce a Word file where each definition is represented as a row of a table with three columns: the term, its definition, and any notes and/or examples. It is often easier to check this has been accomplished by copying and pasting successive attempts into Excel than examining the Word file itself. Sometimes there are special cases such as exotic characters (for example Greek or mathematical characters), special fonts, illustrations, diagrams, or tables.
